No
The description focuses on hardware components, fluid control, pressure monitoring, and standard software control logic. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any learning algorithms.
Yes
The device is described as "intended for use by trained urologists for endoscopically controlled tissue chip resection and coagulation, and removal of prostate adenomas and bladder tumors (TURBT)". These actions directly treat medical conditions, defining it as a therapeutic device.
No
The device is intended for surgical resection and coagulation of tissue, not for diagnosis.
No
The device description clearly lists multiple hardware components (Controller, Resectoscope, Fluid Control Set, Video Control Unit, Roll Stand, Footswitch, Waste Management Tubing, Tissue Catch, Waste Management Bags) that are integral to the system's function. While software is mentioned as controlling some functions, it is part of a larger hardware system.
Based on the provided information, the Veloxion System is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the system is for "endoscopically controlled tissue chip resection and coagulation, and removal of prostate adenomas and bladder tumors (TURBT) via suction channel under continuous flow conditions following resection using a bipolar resectoscope." This describes a surgical procedure performed on the patient, not a test performed on a sample taken from the patient.
- Device Description: The components described are all involved in the surgical procedure itself (resectoscope, controller, fluid control, video control, etc.). While there are accessories for handling waste after it's removed from the patient (tissue catch, waste bags), their purpose is for collection and disposal, not for diagnostic testing of the waste material.
- Lack of Diagnostic Testing: There is no mention of the device performing any tests on biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to diagnose a condition or provide information about a patient's health status. The system is used for the physical removal of tissue.
IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of diseases or conditions. The Veloxion System's function is surgical intervention, not diagnostic testing.

Device Description
The Veloxion System consists of the following components:
- Veloxion Controller (with Integrated Fluid Control)
- Footswitch
- Veloxion Resectoscope
- Veloxion Fluid Control Set
- Veloxion Video Control Unit
- Veloxion Roll Stand
The Veloxion System also includes the following Class I accessories for handling of waste collected from the patient (these items only handle waste after it is already outside the patient), which includes:
- Waste Management Tubing: To provide a conduit for transfer of aspirated fluids and tissue from the patient and from under the patient's buttocks drape
- Tissue Catch: For collection of gross resected tissue pieces for pathology.
- Waste Management Bags: To provide bags for final collection of outflow.
The Veloxion System provides bipolar resection and coagulation of intrauterine tissue, it distends the uterus by filling with saline, it provides pressure control of the intrauterine cavity for insufflation to facilitate viewing with the integrated hysteroscope and it monitors the fluid deficit (potential fluid absorbed by the patient's body) to the physician established limit. The components of Veloxion System perform the following functions:
- The Veloxion Controller provides bipolar radiofrequency outputs (for cut and coagulation) and fluid/pressure control through the use of two integrated peristaltic pumps, provides the user interface to establish the desired set pressure, monitors intracavitary pressure using dual independent pressure sensors mechanically connected to the Veloxion Fluid Control Set irrigation lumen. The software then monitors, controls and notifies the user when the limits are reached or when specific conditions are met.
- The Veloxion Resectoscope is a sterile single use hand held bipolar radiofrequency device configured to provide camera and light for visualization of the anatomy for the resection of tissue and aspiration of resected chips. Fluid inflow and aspiration of the resected chips are controlled by the Controller's peristaltic pumps.
- The Veloxion Fluid Control Set is a sterile single use device that provides conduits for fluid inflow, aspiration of resected tissue and fluids and a diaphragm (pressure membrane) that provides mechanism for the Controller to measure cavity pressure (through the irrigation lumen) during the procedure thereby facilitating the insufflation function.
- The Veloxion Video Control Unit provide control of the camera, light, display image to a commercially available monitor, stores image and video selected by the user from a session, and provides a USB connection for a USB Stick download of stored media by the user.
- The Veloxion Roll Stand enables monitoring of saline remaining in the saline bag and facilitates the fluid deficit function.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
No new performance testing was required to establish substantially equivalence. Results of tests in reviewed as part of clearance of K190099 and K162979 with comparison testing to the predicates (predicate Veloxion System and Richard Wolf Resectoscope) support substantial equivalence to the identified predicates.
Software Verification Testing was performed using the same protocol reviewed as part of K 190099 for all steps affected by the change and documentation updated per FDA 's Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff, "Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices."

Dear Sandeep Saboo:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies.

There are minor differences in the technological characteristics between the subject Veloxion System and the predicates. The minor differences do not raise new or different questions of safety and effectiveness for the intended use of the device as it pertains to the expansion of the indications for use.
VII. Performance Data
No new performance testing was required to establish substantially equivalence. Results of tests in reviewed as part of clearance of K190099 and K162979 with comparison testing to the predicates (predicate Veloxion System and Richard Wolf Resectoscope) support substantial equivalence to the identified predicates.
- . Software Verification Testing was performed using the same protocol reviewed as part of K 190099 for all steps affected by the change and documentation updated per FDA 's Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff, "Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices."
VIII. Conclusions
The subject Veloxion System is considered substantially equivalent and as safe and effective as the identified predicate devices (predicate systems).
